wish and desire. She was pro-
vided with the best teachers in all
departments of education. Until
she was sixteen years of age she
was the picture of perfect health
and loveliness. At a critical time
she was exposed to a rain storm
and caught cold, which caused de-
engagements peculiar to her sex.
She was treated by the best ply
sieians.
She suffered great pain IN her back,
hips, chest and in the back of her
head and neck. Her nervous sys-
tenn became deranged. She would
have spells when she would laugh
and cry alternately, and could not
control herself. Her eyesight was
affected, and when she would at
tempt to read innumerable stars
would appear and blind her.
On February 10th, 1887, the fol-
lowing letter was received from the
broken-hearted father.
DEAR BROTHER NICELREE: The med
cine came too late! My daughter died
on the 18th of last month. / shall
never forgive myself for neglecting to
act on your advice. now firmly be-
lieve that If we had given her the
Wine of Cardui when you wrote US
about it, that she would have been
alive to-day. She was the only joy
and hope of our declining years, and
to think that her life was sacrificed by
prejudice makes me miserable. A
young lady, Miss -, living near US,
who was afflicted almost precisely liz Z
my daughter, was treated with tt
Wine of Cardui, and is now entirely
well. May God forgive met
Yours in great affliction,
JOHN g. LEACH.
During the first part of his
daughters sickness Mr.. Leach's
attention was directed to the new
remedy for such diseases (McEI-
reefs Wine of Cardui) and he was
advised to try it, but her physician
protested against it. Finally, when
all hope was gone, he consented,
but it was then too late. No hui
man power could save her life.
The names in the above story are
fictictious, but the facts are exact
occurrences. One hundred cases
similar to this could be given,
where cures were accomplished by
use of McElree's Wine of Cardui,
and all might have terminated in
death, as SO many hundreds do
every year.
Mr. S. A. Smith, Postmaster at
Burnt Mills, Tishomingo county,
Miss. one of the most successful
country merchants in the State,
well known throughout Northern
Mississippi, writes us the following
unsolicited letter:
BURNT MILLS, MISS, Oct. 81, '89.
To the Chattanooga Medicine Co.:
Your medicines are all up to the
recommendations. McElree's Wine
Of Cardui cannot be too highly recon-
7 tended.
One lady in this neighborhood was
confined to her room for sic gears, and
oy the use of six bottles of Wine Of
Cardul is now permanently cured.
Another one with Heart Dropsy, or
thought to be 6y eminent 71hVsjctdns
and pronounced iSecotrEbLe, after using
five bottles is permanently cured.
s. A. SMITH.
We wrote to Mr.. Smith, asking
him if he had any objection to the
publication of his letter. This was
his reply:
'sI have no objection to the letter be-
ing printed, and would be glad if every
lady in the world could see it."

This astonishing but simple rem
edy is one of the most valuable
Tonics for ladies who are debili-
tated, weak, WORKOUT, tired and
nervous. A dose taken every
morning will strengthen them in
every way, and no prejudice should
deter them from using it. 1t puri-
fies the blood. clears the complexion,
strengthens and quiets the nerves,
and tones up the whole system. It
is for sale by all druggists, and all
who keep it will recommend it.
The following letter is from a
clergyman well known in every
State in the Union, but particu-
larly in Tennessee. If we were at
liberty to use the writer's name, no
lady who reads it would doubt the
value of McElree's Wine of Cardui.
Gentlemen Since the birth Of our
last child, five years ago, my wife has
been a great sufferer from falling of the
womb. For weeks at q time she was
never able to stand on her feet more
than an hour at time without great
pain. and had other ailments that made
her condition exceedingly alarming.
Physicians were never able to do her
much good, though / consulted the
best I could find. About four months
ago we got one of your little books, and
were led to try your Wine of Cardui as
Q tonic. The benefit from the first bot
tie was not very great, but she kept on
taking it, and soon began to improve,
and is now in good health. She is q
firm believer that the Wine cured her,
and insisted on writing to express her
gratituie To you. have written this
for her satisfaction, relying upon you
to make no publication of my name In
connection with the matter. While
do not think the Wine was the sole
cause of my wffe's recovery, l do think
Il was instrumental in bringing about
her restoration 70 health, and shall
ever feel grateful for It's being thrown
ia our way.
